### ripgrep

A recommended tool to improve the performance of directory scanning is [`ripgrep`](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep), a Rust-based directory walker that natively integrates with our [`.ts_ignore`](ignore.md) (`.gitignore`-style) pattern matching system for excluding files and directories. Ripgrep is already pre-installed on some Linux distributions and also available from several package managers.

## Common Error Messages
### Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb"

If you get an error message like this one:

```
qt.qpa.plugin: From 6.5.0, xcb-cursor0 or libxcb-cursor0 is needed to load the Qt xcb platform plugin.
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "/tmp/_MEIayuTiW/cv2/qt/plugins" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: vnc, wayland-egl, offscreen, wayland, linuxfb, minimalegl, eglfs, minimal, vkkhrdisplay, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)
```

Make sure you installed `libxcb-cursor` or `xcb-util-cursor`.
